Who we are

As the NIHR Clinical Research Network (CRN) Wessex, we provide the infrastructure that allows high-quality health and social care research to take place within our area, for the benefit of patients and the public. We help to increase the opportunities for people to take part in research and ensure that studies are carried out efficiently. We are hosted by University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust. The Wessex region covers Hampshire, Dorset, Isle of Wight and south Wiltshire.
